Just went on “GOOGLE’ to find out why I wasn’t seeing Roy on T.V. anymore. What heart breaking news. .He was my favourite and I miss him….My deepest sympathy to his wife and family.. He will be missed here in Canada…..

You people are absolutely delusional, Roy was the biggest turd I’ve ever had the displeasure of listening to, he treated EVERY person like dirt and everyone here is talking about him like he was the Dalai Lama WRONG
Who cares that he’s dead, not me – dude was a walking ball of hate
The comments just prove to me how lost humans have become….praising the worst in each other, good for you, you honor someone who had ZERO compassion for others as a hero. Ridiculous!
I pray for mushroom clouds

Having had a heart attack at the age of 57 I know just what it’s like. I almost died myself but was lucky enought to get help when needed. RIP Roy we all will miss you you really made the show I hope that you have a twin out there that they can find.

The show will just not be the same without Roy!!! This news came as a shock! I just loved his sarcasm (even though at times he directed it at points I did’nt agree with)! But I sure admired how he was so good at what he did and how he would stick it to those who had it coming with his amusing caustic and callous remarks! Being that I’m a driver myself in Las Vegas,NV, and transporting the cargo that Roy had the least patience with, ‘people’. Condolences to his son and cat Muffy and the other pets!

I would like to say as a Driver, he will be missed our deepest condolence goes out to the family of the Garber heaven has a place for him as a lead transporter god bless ya and RIP Mr Roy Garber from A&I Transportation Raymondville NY

Oh my god… I loved this guy.. God has claimed another good man…. I lost my dad well he was out on the road at the age of 52 he died of a heart attack as well.. Why does God keep taking the good ones away form us… Please pray for Roy and his family… I know I will…To Travis I know your dads passing does not make cents there was no reason to take him when there are so many others that do not take good care of them self’s.. or the bad people in this world they should have been taken not you;r dad… I know this because I felt the same way when my dad passed…. good luck to you Travis and I am vary sorry for your loss … give your mom a great big hug i am sure she needs it

Roy was a very funny and always did work and always got his shipping out on time and he ever had problem he was always thinking two steps a head if some thing happened , Roy will be sadly missed and my prayers and thoughts goes out to his family. R.I.P.. You will not be for gotten and always miss. The only reason why i watch that show was for him,

From Canada loved you Roy , watched the show to hear your friendly competition with the other shippers. But Ill always try to be perfect just like Roy. Thanks for that line.Gone but not.forgotten. R.I.P.

Roy was the guy who told it as it is didn’t like people telling him how to do his job. Kind of a prick at times but got the job done. Roy Garber made the show you will be missed. Prayers go out to the family. R.I.P

Yes, Roy Garber was “cocky”. Yes, he was quick to tell you the way it was, as he saw it. You know what though, he knew what he was doing, and had the talents to back it up. Roy, your character, and you being such a “character’ will be genuinely missed by many. Myself especially. Deepest sympathy to the Garber family.

I was shocked when I read about Roy. He was so stubborn and funny wrapped into one interesting person I loved to watch. I feel for his son and his cat. The cat mean’t so much to him took it everywhere and that was special too, Rest in peace Roy we will really miss you. Roy was my favorite character on the show and he was a character I won’t forget.

I feel like somebody took a friend. from me.
Roy; was everybody’s man worked hard played hard. and loved his family, and his
; beloved cat muffy. Hope I spelled her name
right.
All this friend can say is this “Nickel holding
up a dollar.”
Roy wasn’t a star he was a friend to us all going. up and down. life’s highway.

Snowy. Did you personally know Roy or do you consider a person you saw on TV who had a total of 128 minutes of total on screen time a friend and someone you knew ? Do you realize that his lines were SCRIPTED ? People need to stop believing the people on TV are firends and that they know them !

Scripted or not friend or not a family lost a member . A human lost his life , who cares what you think about friend or not . But apparently you cared enough to add up his on air.minutes. Maybe you need a friend. My Sympathies go to the family.

Bobwadas: I did know him personally and no mater if it was him as a best friend or simply his character on a semi-scripted reality show, different people will appreciate and remember him in different ways. No need to use this as a forum to debate a cynical view of human nature. Plenty of more appropriate times (and venues) to do such a thing. Show some class man…

So very sorry to hear this. I am an avid fan of Shipping Wars and Roy was one of my favorites. My thoughts and prayers go out to all of his family and friends. May God surround them all with comfort, peace and strength.

Roy’s passing broke my heart. He was one of the best transporters on the show. He was much too young to be taken from this earth. He will surely be missed. R.I.P. Roy. My sincerest and heartfelt sympathy to his family and friends.
